What about being lost to low wages countries, with better wage countries keeping the roles of project management and architecture?

Didn't that scare happen a while ago with everyone worried about India taking all the software jobs? Didn't really happen. Could happen again, sure. I don't think more advanced AI or more simple programming languages will be a large factor in that.

I can tell you that the trend to offshore is still pretty ongoing in full speed.

Naturally those developers are also entitled to have jobs, the question is how it is actually done in practice.

Sadly a large majority are sweetshops.
